What we did is we worked for 8 years to create a film archive and an art-house cinema in this building,\" she says.\u003cbr/\u003eIn the year 2000, the cinema started undergoing major renovations, before becoming the home to the Cinematheque Tangier in 2007.\u003cbr/\u003eWith new projection equipment, new seats and a new screen, the modernised Rif is barely recognisable, if it weren''t for its striking art deco architecture.\u003cbr/\u003eRegular Sophie Aouine says it is a great meeting place. \u003cbr/\u003e\"There are great retrospectives of world cinema.

Because first of all the civil servants had to be changed. All the jobs that had been held by the French, the Spanish or the British had to go to Moroccans, so all the French, Spanish and British families left. The same thing happened to the Jews. They mostly, and by that I mean 99%, had worked for banks or businesses. All the banks and businesses closed so whole families left. Tangier was empty. So, when Tangier was abandoned so were the cinemas,\" she says.\u003cbr/\u003eThe state''s film body, the Centre Cinematographique du Maroc, or CCM, has plans to re-open some of the art deco cinemas. \u003cbr/\u003eNourredine Sail, director of the CCM, says they want to  increasing the number of cinemas across the country.\u003cbr/\u003e\"There are old local cinemas in the middle of the old town with 300 to 350 seats which have been closed for a long time. This category of cinema - and I think there are between 40 and 50 in the country, we are trying to get them dealt with by the local council for each town.
